Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a saddle type vehicle.
  • TW 201339025 A discloses a saddle type vehicle.
  • This saddle type vehicle includes a frame, an exterior cover that covers the frame, a seat supported by the frame via a housing box, a head lamp that emits light forwardly, and two position lamps disposed on the right side and on the left side of the head lamp, respectively.
  • the frame of the saddle type vehicle described above includes a head tube and a main frame that extends downwardly from the head tube.
  • the exterior cover includes a front cover disposed in front of the head tube.
  • a rider (driver)'s legs are disposed in a space provided between the seat and head tube.
  • the head lamp and position lamps of the saddle type vehicle described above are disposed in the front cover.
  • the head lamp and position lamps respectively include clear covers disposed in front of light sources.
  • the respective clear covers are exposed from an open portion included in the front cover.
  • the rear end portion of the clear cover of the head lamp is located further to the rear than the front end of the position lamp.
  • the front cover includes a partition cover portion that defines a portion of the open portion, and separates the head lamp and position lamp.
  • the partition cover portion is cantilever portion.
  • the partition cover portion includes a front end disposed between the clear cover of the head lamp and the clear cover of the position lamp in a side view and an inner edge and outer edge that extend rearward from the front end. The front end of the partition cover portion is not connected to another portion of the front cover.
  • the vehicle makes the lights of the head lamp and position lamp easily distinguishable by separating the head lamp and position lamp with the partition cover portion of the front cover.
  • the rear end of the inner edge of the partition cover portion is disposed at substantially the same position as the rear end of the clear cover of the head lamp in the front-rear direction.
  • the rear end of the outer edge of the partition cover portion is disposed at substantially the same position as the rear end of the clear cover of the position lamp in the front-rear direction.
  • the partition cover portion has been broadened in width (length between the inner edge and outer edge of the partition cover portion) within a range where the sizes of the clear covers required for the head lamp and position lamp can be secured.
  • a preferred embodiment provides a saddle type vehicle including a frame, a head lamp, a first side lamp, and a front cover.
  • the frame includes a head tube.
  • the head lamp includes a head lamp light source and a head lamp clear cover disposed in front of the head lamp light source.
  • the first side lamp includes a first side lamp light source and a first side lamp clear cover disposed in front of the first side lamp light source.
  • the first side lamp is disposed outside of the head lamp in the vehicle width direction. At least a portion of the front cover is disposed in front of the head tube.
  • the head lamp and the first side lamp are disposed in the front cover.
  • a rear end of the head lamp clear cover is disposed at a more rearward position than a front end of the first side lamp clear cover.
  • the front cover includes a base cover, and a separate cover.
  • the base cover includes an open portion at which the head lamp clear cover and the first side lamp clear cover are exposed.
  • the base cover and the separate cover are separate members independent of each other. The separate cover is attached to the base cover.
  • the separate cover includes a partition cover portion which separates the head lamp clear cover and the first side lamp clear cover. At least a portion of the partition cover portion is disposed between the head lamp clear cover and the first side lamp clear cover. A front end of the partition cover portion is not connected to another portion of the front cover. In other words, a front end of the partition cover portion is not connected to a portion other than the partition cover portion.
  • An outer edge of the partition cover portion is located outside in the vehicle width direction in a front view, and extends rearward from the front end of the partition cover portion.
  • An inner edge of the partition cover portion is located inside in the vehicle width direction in a front view, and extends rearward from the front end of the partition cover portion. Both of the inner edge and outer edge of the partition cover portion extend rearward from the front end of the partition cover portion to a more rearward position than at least one of the rear end of the head lamp clear cover and a rear end of the first side lamp clear cover.
  • the partition cover portion of the separate cover separates the head lamp and the first side lamp, the visibility of the head lamp and the first side lamp is improved.
  • the partition cover portion is formed separately from the base cover.
  • the rear ends of both of the inner edge and outer edge of the partition cover portion are located further to the rear than at least one of the rear end of the head lamp clear cover and the rear end of the first side lamp clear cover.
  • the partition cover portion has secured no less than a length necessary for separating the head lamp and the first side lamp, and the partition cover portion is thus long.
  • the partition cover portion Because the partition cover portion is long, the partition cover portion easily flexes. Thus, even if external force is applied to the partition cover portion, the external force can be dispersed or absorbed by flexure (elastic deformation) of the partition cover portion. A bending strength necessary for the partition cover portion is accordingly easily secured. Therefore, the partition cover portion to separate the head lamp clear cover and the first side lamp clear cover can be narrowed, so that the exposed area of the head lamp clear cover and the first side lamp clear cover can be increased. Thereby, the visibility of the head lamp and the first side lamp can be further improved.
  • the compactness of the vehicle and the strength of the partition cover portion can be maintained, while the visibility of the head lamp and the first side lamp disposed in the front portion of the vehicle can be improved.
  • At least a portion of the inner edge and outer edge of the partition cover portion may be disposed at a more outward position than the front end of the partition cover portion in the vehicle width direction.
  • the partition cover portion can be lengthened.
  • the length of the partition cover portion in the front-rear direction can be kept down, while the overall length of the partition cover portion (length from the front end of the partition cover portion to the rear end of the partition cover portion) can be increased. Accordingly, the separate cover provided with the partition cover portion can be made compact in the front-rear direction, while the strength of the partition cover portion can be improved.
  • the base cover may include a base fastening portion at least a portion of which is disposed between the head lamp and first side lamp.
  • the base fastening portion may be fastened with a fastening member to at least one of the head lamp and first side lamp.
  • the partition cover portion may be overlapped with the base fastening portion such that the fastening member is hidden by the partition cover portion.
  • At least one of the head lamp and the first side lamp is supported by the base cover.
  • a lamp support portion to support at least one of the head lamp and the first side lamp is not necessarily provided for the separate cover. Therefore, a restriction in the shape of the partition cover portion by a lamp support portion can be avoided, and the degree of freedom in the shape of the partition cover portion can be increased. Thereby, for example, by further narrowing a front end portion of the partition cover portion, the exposed area of the head lamp clear cover and the first side lamp clear cover can be increased. Thus, the visibility of the head lamp and the first side lamp can be enhanced.
  • a projection portion projecting in an overlapping direction of the partition cover portion and the base fastening portion may be included in one of the partition cover portion and the base fastening portion, and a fitting hole into which the projection portion is inserted to restrict a relative movement of the partition cover portion and the base fastening portion may be included in the other of the partition cover portion and the base fastening portion.
  • the partition cover portion is attached to the base fastening portion with a simple arrangement including the projection portion and the fitting hole.
  • a simple arrangement including the projection portion and the fitting hole.
  • the base cover may further include an exposed portion extending along the inner edge of the partition cover portion and exposed at a more inward position than the partition cover portion in the vehicle width direction.
  • the exposed portion of the base cover extends along the inner edge of the partition cover portion, the inner edge of the partition cover portion is emphasized. Thereby, the head lamp clear cover and the first side lamp clear cover can be more clearly separated by the partition cover portion.
  • the exposed portion may include a groove portion extending along the inner edge of the partition cover portion.
  • the partition cover portion can disperse or absorb the external force by flexure (elastic deformation). A necessary strength can thereby be secured in the partition cover portion.
  • a front end of the head lamp clear cover may be disposed at a more forward position than the front end of the first side lamp clear cover.
  • the rear end of the head lamp clear cover may be disposed at a more forward position than the rear end of the first side lamp clear cover.
  • the front end of the head lamp clear cover is shifted forward with respect to the front end of the first side lamp clear cover, the visibility of the front end of the head lamp when the saddle type vehicle is viewed from its lateral side is improved.
  • the rear end of the first side lamp clear cover is shifted rearward with respect to the rear end of the head lamp clear cover, the visibility of the rear end of the first side lamp when the saddle type vehicle is viewed from its lateral side is improved. Thereby, the visibility of the head lamp and the first side lamp can be further improved.
  • the saddle type vehicle may further include a second side lamp disposed between the head lamp and partition cover portion and between the first side lamp and partition cover portion.
  • the partition cover portion is further distinct. Thereby, the visibility of the head lamp and the first side lamp can be further improved.
  • the second side lamp may include a second side lamp light source covered with the partition cover portion at least in a front view, and a lighting body at least a portion of which is disposed at a more forward position than the second side lamp light source, and which diffuses and transmits light of the second side lamp light source.
  • the lighting body may include a first lighting portion extending along the partition cover portion between the head lamp and partition cover portion, a second lighting portion extending along the partition cover portion between the first side lamp and partition cover portion, and a connecting lighting portion to connect the first lighting portion and the second lighting portion each other at a lower position than the partition cover portion.
  • the partition cover portion is bordered with the second side lamp to be emphasized.
  • the head lamp and the first side lamp are separated by the partition cover portion emphasized with the second side lamp.
  • the visibility of the head lamp and the first side lamp can be further improved.
  • the saddle type vehicle may include two of the first side lamps disposed on the right side and on the left side of the head lamp, respectively.
  • the separate cover may include two of the partition cover portions disposed at both sides of the head lamp in the vehicle width direction and separating the first side lamp on the right side and the head lamp and separating the first side lamp on the left side and the head lamp, and an upper cover portion located over the head lamp in a front view and connecting upper end portions of the two partition cover portions to each other.
  • the two first side lamps are disposed on the right side and on the left side of the head lamp, respectively.
  • the right first side lamp and the head lamp are separated by the right partition cover portion, and the left first side lamp and the head lamp are separated by the left partition cover portion.
  • the inner edge of the partition cover portion may extend rearward from the front end of the partition cover portion to a more rearward position than both of the rear end of the head lamp clear cover and the rear end of the first side lamp clear cover.
  • the outer edge of the partition cover portion may extend rearward from the front end of the partition cover portion to a more rearward position than both of the rear end of the head lamp clear cover and the rear end of the first side lamp clear cover.
  • the rear end of the inner edge of the partition cover portion is disposed further to the rear than both of the head lamp clear cover and the first side lamp clear cover. Further, the rear end of the outer edge of the partition cover portion is disposed further to the rear than both of the head lamp clear cover and the first side lamp clear cover. Because the partition cover portion is thereby further lengthened, the compactness of the vehicle and the strength of the partition cover portion can be maintained, while the visibility of the head lamp and the first side lamp disposed in the front portion of the vehicle can be improved.
